Should Your Ego Be Happily Housebroken? “Awaken, Heal, and Thrive!” Podcast E55

More About Dark Entities and Wounded Parts: “Awaken, Heal, and Thrive!” Podcast E54
How can you tell whether you’re being challenged by a dark entity … or if the challenge is coming from one of your own wounded parts? I initially covered this topic In Episode 4 of this podcast, which I recorded way back in October 2022. Then, a year and a half later, one of my Awakening Plus members brought up this subject during one of our “Ask Us Anything” events. Our conversation was so interesting that I based this episode on it. (With my member’s permission, of course.) I do say some similar things in both episodes, but there are also plenty of fresh insights here. Join us to learn how to distinguish between dark entities and wounded parts … and deal with them effectively!

While this interview episode focuses on hope – and how Laura V. is healing from severe trauma more quickly and easily than she had thought possible – it does contain graphic descriptions that may upset some listeners. This episode is definitely not suitable for children, so please don’t listen if you’re under eighteen. Even if you’re an adult, if the thought of a five-year-old girl being pulled into a sex trafficking operation, then experiencing extreme abuse for more than eight years, is too much for you to bear, please stop right here. Laura V, one of my healing clients, gives frank descriptions of her ten years as a victim of incest and sex trafficking. Her father, one of many men who abused her, sold her into sexual slavery when she was a young girl. This 80-minute episode includes details of how she and many other children experienced severe abuse, which some did not survive. She also describes how Dissociative Identity Disorder has helped her cope with these traumatic experiences. Laura discusses her experiences in the context of how she’s healing from these traumas using quick and effective modalities, especially Internal Family Systems Therapy and my Instant Divine Assistance Invocations. Both Laura and I have been amazed at how rapidly she’s been healing during the sessions I’ve been facilitating for her. Our intention with this episode is to show you that, no matter how severe the trauma you’ve experienced, quick and effective healing might be possible. After our interview, I’ll give you a brief overview of child sex trafficking. This will help you put Laura’s experience into a larger context. I’ve also included links to Laura’s recommended books and support resources for childhood sexual abuse and Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Why You’re Lucky that the Healing’s Never Done: “Awaken, Heal, and Thrive!” Podcast #38
Why would you be lucky if the healing’s never done? Because, for most people, healing is the fastest way to accelerate spiritual awakening! That’s because of the Great Onion of Consciousness. Your radiant higher self is at the core, surrounded by layers of unhealed pain and trauma. Each time you peel off one of these layers, it exposes more of your divine self — which deepens your awakening! In this 14-minute video, I illustrate my points with tales of my own healing and awakening journey. I also discuss the “slingshot effect.” This explains why the most challenging traumas, once healed, result in the biggest spiritual breakthroughs. And I mention my free Healing Invocation, which can make your healing much faster and easier by delegating it to your higher self!

A Spiritual Guide to Prioritising Internal Truth over External Influence.” She’s also a kinesiologist, mentor, archetypal life coach, mother and much more. Highlights of this fascinating 64-minute interview with Amanda include: How insights gained from her agonizing decision to end a toxic marriage – and realizing how much abuse she had suffered – changed her self-perception from “fundamentally flawed” to “fundamentally human.” How kinesiology succeeded when western medicine failed to cure serious physical and mental challenges – inspiring her to help others heal by becoming a kinesiologist herself! Moving past religious intermediaries to experience the God within you. The positive role of anger to expose boundary violations – especially for women. Why it’s so important to complete and release our stress responses. Using emotional fluency to identify and befriend all your emotions. When to shift a challenging emotion, and when to sit with it. How the truth has 144 sides. “Wholing” vs healing. How your troublesome wounded parts are actually trying to help you. Amanda’s favorite technique to regain your calm center. (It’s so simple!) The critical importance of being “of service to,” rather than “in service to.” Why serving and loving ourselves empowers us to optimally serve and love others. Understanding self-love as a skill that can be strengthened – and how it can be gritty, hard, and firm in setting and enforcing boundaries. Why your “comfort zone” is better understood as your “known zone.” How to stay alert to the many ways your internal guidance can nudge you onto the best path, and How shadow work can help you embody the light that you really are. This conversation is loaded with life-transforming insights. Enjoy!

Thanks to your flood of 99-cent eBook purchases, Instant Divine Assistance hit #1 in 11 Amazon categories. That’s not a typo. Eleven categories!

Unconditional Love: Not What I Expected!
I recently had a profound ceremonial experience of unconditional love. It rocked my world! As I experienced it, unconditional love has many extraordinary qualities. It’s a blended field of blissful awareness, completely beyond ego. There’s absolute free will. And there’s the clear knowing that everything is perfect, exactly as it is.

I weave in fundamental concepts from the Law of One channeled material and Internal Family Systems Therapy.

I do say quite a bit about my specific retreat experiences, but also give plenty of helpful background information so you can understand their context.

Interpreting Inner Spiritual Experiences: Physical Reality or Metaphor?
My life partner Spiritsong had hip replacement surgery on November 2, 2021. Hours before the procedure, she said that — even though her experience of life is joyful — she only wanted to keep living if her health supported the divine service she’s here to give. As I held a sacred container for her during the surgery, I was concerned to feel her energy gradually dissolving into oneness. Had she dropped her body and transitioned to the other side? Obviously not, since she co-presents with me in this video! But her physical death was a possible interpretation for what I was experiencing. We also discuss another incident when an inner spiritual experience led me to mistakenly believe that she had died … and we explore the tricky process of distinguishing a metaphorical inner vision from objective physical reality. This may sound heavy, but we bring a healthy sense of humor to the topic. And we think you’ll get a chuckle or two out of Spiritsong’s story near the end!

“There’s a Story in my Mind that Says…”
I had no idea how important one podcast episode would be for me. Specifically, this episode of the Tim Ferris Show: “Jim Dethmer — How to Shift from Victim Consciousness, Reduce Drama, Practice Candor, Be Fully Alive, and More)”. Whenever possible, Dethmer and his wife of many years make a practice of sharing all the challenging thoughts they’re having about each other, as they arise. Especially the sorts of things most couples would never dream of saying to each other! In this post, I share how Maeikisala and I have started using this tool to work through challenge and deepen our connection.

This is also the first weekly forecast that I’m simultaneously recording as an audio podcast and a video. Just like the early days of television, I did this straight through. No editing afterward. Hopefully, what it lacks in polish it will make up for in energy – sort of a “live in the studio” vibe.
